Marauder Corps [MARCORPS] - Organizations

History

The Marauder Corps is a formidable hybrid organization in the Star Citizen universe, blending the disciplined professionalism of a private military corporation (PMC) with the brutal, opportunistic tactics of piracy. Born from a coalition of former military contractors and skilled frontier outlaws in the early 2950s, the Corps has evolved into a unique force that uses both conventional warfare and ruthless guerrilla tactics to dominate contested regions of space.

Drawing on their PMC background, the Marauder Corps maintain strict hierarchical command and advanced battlefield coordination, while embracing the flexibility and ferocity of guerrilla piracy. This duality enables them to shift fluidly between sanctioned military operations and hit-and-run raids on lucrative targets.

Notable Campaigns

The 890 Jump Operation (2959)
One of the Marauder Corps’ most infamous missions was the high-stakes seizure of an 890 Jump luxury liner traveling through the Crucible system. Leveraging their PMC training, they coordinated an advanced electronic warfare assault to disable the vessel’s defenses and communication arrays. Swiftly deploying boarding teams, they overwhelmed the crew through precision tactics and overwhelming force, capturing the prestigious vessel intact.

This operation demonstrated the Corps’ ability to execute complex, large-scale military-style operations with the ruthless efficiency of piracy, signaling their arrival as a major player capable of striking high-value targets.

The War of Jump Town (2961–2963)
Jump Town, a vital trade and refueling hub, became the stage for a brutal war between the Marauder Corps and multiple rival factions competing for control. Drawing heavily on their PMC roots, the Corps established fortified positions and implemented disciplined defensive strategies while launching relentless guerrilla-style raids against enemy supply lines and outposts.

The fighting in Jump Town was characterized by intense urban warfare, sabotage, and swift counterattacks. The Marauder Corps exploited their knowledge of combined arms tactics and asymmetric warfare to outmaneuver larger forces, eventually securing a dominant foothold in the region and turning Jump Town into a strategic bastion for their operations.

The Ghost Hollow Conflict (2964–2965)
At Ghost Hollow, the Marauder Corps faced off against the notorious mercenary outfit known as the Iron Talons in a protracted and brutal war over control of key smuggling routes and resource extraction sites. This conflict was marked by a clash of styles: the Marauder Corps’ PMC discipline and coordination versus the Iron Talons’ heavy firepower and brute force.

The Marauder Corps employed guerrilla tactics—ambushes, hit-and-run strikes, and electronic warfare disruption—to offset the Talons’ superior firepower, leveraging stealth and speed over open confrontation. These tactics allowed the Marauder Corps to inflict heavy damage on the Talons’ operations, securing critical supply lines and undermining their enemy’s control.

Manifesto

“You trained for war. We were born in it.”

I. WHO WE ARE

We are the Marauder Corps—a ruthless force forged in the chaos of unregulated space. We do not bend to empires or bow to laws carved by cowards behind desks. We are not soldiers. We are not pirates. We are both. We are more.

Our creed is survival. Our currency is power. Our loyalty lies only with those who bleed beside us.

II. OUR CODE

Honor the Contract: When we’re paid, we deliver. No politics. No excuses. Whether it’s protection or destruction, we fulfill our end with lethal precision.

Embrace the Shadows: Smuggling, interception, black ops—where others see crime, we see opportunity. We strike from the dark and vanish before the echo fades.

Strength Through Brotherhood: Every Marauder stands alone in skill, but together we are a war machine. Betrayal is death. Loyalty is command.

Dominate the Void: From asteroid belts to abandoned outposts, we claim the lawless fringe as our domain. No patrols. No borders. No mercy.

III. OUR PURPOSE

We exist in the grey where law and chaos collide. We are the answer to corrupt governments, spineless corporations, and naive idealists. When war comes—and it always does—we don’t choose sides. We choose profit. We choose survival. We choose victory.

IV. OUR RANKS

From lowly Drifters to Supreme Warlords, each Marauder earns their place through fire. Ranks are not given—they’re taken. Only the brutal rise.

V. OUR RECRUITS

We are new-player friendly. We don’t care where you’re from. We don’t care how green you are. If you have the guts to learn, to fight, to carve your name into the void—we’ll make a Marauder out of you.

We welcome the lost, the hunted, the ambitious, and the mad. Casual roleplay. Serious steel.

VI. OUR MESSAGE

To the civilized: Sleep lightly.
To the corrupt: We’re coming.
To the brave: Join us.

We are the Marauder Corps.

And we were born in war.
